SACRAMENTO, July 2S.-Hook Gan

rior Court against All Ping ct al. for
the possession of mining claim on
Mormon Island this county. The liti-
gants are the Cinnamon who INDUCED
in a shooting scrape few weeks ago,
in which one man was shot in the
back. Deputy Constable Goods yes
terday served the papers on the de-
PENDANTS and says that he found the
mine barricaded and all preparations
made for war. Breastworks have
been thrown up and the Mongolians
in possession are provided with almost
every conceivable weapon. Winches-
ter rifles stand beside spears fourteen
feet in length, and there are curiously
constructed shields scattered all
about. These shields are made in the
shape of half opened book, are COW
cred with sheet-iron, and are so lined
as to be impervious to bullets. The
case will not come up in the court for
more than week, and before that
time it is believed that the matter will
be settled by force uf arms.

ADVICE FOR BLAINE.
NEW York, July 2S.--The Ecening
Post says: .'The Blaine faction in
Ohio has been pretty effectually ex-
tinguised for the time being by the
Toledo convention and it is now almost
certain that Illinois and Indiana will
follow. The voice of the latter state
will be heard and listened to in the
south. Sherman has won q notable
victory and it will be we'll for Blain to
turn his steps homeward without
delay, if he would counteract the wave
that the Toledo convention started
yesterday.
